Lament of the World Server
Lament of the World Server The day the World Trade Center was destroyed, 9/11/2001, my Russian friend, Natalia, called me via landline because that’s all there was then. She cried out emotionally, “I am so sorry to see that you are under attack. It is terrible.” She had been watching television and was seized by the moment to moment account of the heart-rending and unbelievable tragedy. I didn’t know about it because it was early morning here. I spent fifteen years with a nonprofit educational organization working in America and with...
read moreEmotional Control
Emotional Control When a person begins to consciously deal with his spiritual growth all kinds of things happen. One of the first things s/he must do is to determine areas of strength and weakness, especially in the emotional area. S/he has to discover what kinds of things trigger the emotions, what the emotions are and how deep they go into the life experience. For instance, if s/he is shattered by emotional sensitivity and the mind is not as strong as the emotions a good look at the emotions can be helpful. Recently a man who had cancer...

Why Spiritual Integration Is Important A good stable integration of the mind, emotions and brain is an outstanding quality of spiritually advanced people. The goal of most students is to integrate the personality nature—the mind, emotions and brain so that the personality functions well. This is a necessary step in growth prior to becoming a working soul. In an inner way, s/he dedicates himself to being conscious of all three levels of the personality as much of the time as he can. The personality is often dedicated to the selfish and greedy...
read moreThe First Principle of the Earth Charter
The First Principle of the Earth Charter by Rebecca A Field The Earth Charter articulates a commonly held idea about our key relationships. These four ideas serve as an umbrella covering four areas of human life: the community of life, the Earth, all other people and our ancient yet current yearning for peace. Each principle calls for respect, integrity, economic justice and peace. Remembering that, according to the Ancient Wisdom tradition, a principle is slightly different from what it is in our everyday understanding, a principle...
read moreThe Earth Charter
2012 is over and only perhaps can we say that the most critical moment has passed for the inhabitants of Gaia, our mother planet. Shift, change and evolution have been with us from the beginning, but now things are “soul size” as Christopher Fry declared in the play, A Sleep of Prisoners. We live in a time when humanity’s individual and collective light is bright enough to invoke spiritual possibility. Some scientists have told us for years that we need to pay more attention to the earth and its ecology—in the sense that ecology refers to a...
read moreThe Longest Stride of Soul
The Longest Stride of Soul by Rebecca A Field The world has gone mad! Most recently exemplified by the massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, we grieve with you and feel the agony you suffer. We know your courage and your anger and we stand with you and support you in what was a meaningless act of cruelty. What happened there was horrible. How to make sense of it is the question and everyone has his own answer, or, at least, must find his own answer. The pro-gun lobby in Washington promotes the idea that anyone can have a gun. Could it be that...
read morePlea for Love of the Earth by Native Canadians Morphs into a Global Movement
Plea for Love of the Earth by Native Canadians Morphs into a Global Movement A parliamentary bill in Ottawa (Bill C45) resonates with Native Canadians and reverberates with some of the sentiments of the Occupy Wall Street movement and the sentiments that brought on the Arab Spring. Canadian Indians resist the bill because financial interests take precedence over life and have no respect for human beings. Representatives of financial interests have little respect for people. Indians in Canada are saying in effect, “We’ve had enough. Stop it...

. A Perspective on The Current Crisis – Part III by Rebecca A Field No system of truth, whether it be ideational, idealistic or sensate is completely correct, nor does any one of them alone offer the solutions necessary to meet and overcome all human problems. It is like phases of the moon when the whole moon is visible, but only a part of it has the sun shining on it. When one system becomes overly dominant as the sensate has now become, the sensory elements take over to the detriment of the ideation and idealistic elements that are...
read morePerspective On The Present Global Crisis – Part 2
A PERSPECTIVE ON THE CURRENT CRISIS – Part II by Rebecca A Field Humanity is currently in a period of realizing that the sensory cultural outlook of the present isn’t working any longer. Most of us don’t want to go into a monastery, real or symbolic, for mystical revelations to find our inner truth or the existence of societal truth. We live in the dying phase of a sensate era. The difference between the two outlooks of sensational and ideational is vastly different. Huge in fact! Neither ideational, the religious viewpoint, nor the...
